Mr HOWARD (Prime Minister) (3:19 PM) —Mr Speaker, I seek the indulgence of the chair to add to an answer.


The SPEAKER —The minister may proceed.


Mr HOWARD —The member for Jagajaga asked me a question based in part on a remark attributed to me. It would have been made on 18 October 1999. I have now had a chance to pull out the Hansard, and the remark I made about not introducing `a loans scheme with a real or indeed any other rate of interest' were in the context of such a scheme replacing HECS. The member for Jagajaga took the remark completely out of context, as the Labor Party frequently does.
